Kim launched her 75-piece line (a collaboration with celebrity jewelry designer Pascal Mouawad that even includes hair accessories) with a party at Revolve Clothing in L.A. where one of our editors, Jen Weinberg, caught up with her:

J.W.: Your new line is such a versatile mix of statement, everyday, and evening pieces, so we've got to ask, what's the jewelry version of the LBD?

Kim: I think every girl needs to have a hoop. I love hoop earrings. You can dress them up or dress them down. I'm obsessed with them! I did studs for Belle Noel and I wear studs all the time, so that would be the staple for this line, but I think I'm pretty over the top, so a hoop would be my jewelry staple.

J.W.: Got any tips for wearing jewelry?

K.K.: Well, when I was putting this on tonight, I didn't have a blow dryer--if anything cold touches my body, I shake, so I try to blow dry jewelry before putting it on! I hate wearing jewelry when it's freezing out, but it looks so good and when I get the chills, I'll have them all day, so I have to blow dry the jewelry! Everyone knows, microphone packs and jewelry--I have to blow dry them for a few seconds and I put them on when they're warm so they warm me up too.

Who knew blow drying jewelry was such a stay-warm trick?! We also wanted to see what she was wearing from the line--turns out in addition to those fab necklaces you can see in the picture above, she stacked up these bracelets:

We're obsessed! If you want to see the full Belle Noel collection (we're crushing on the Nugget studs and bracelets), you can see it at RevolveClothing.com. Our favorite part? Everything retails for under $175.

So ladies, what do you think of Belle Noel jewelry? Is there a piece you're dying for? Do you agree with Kim that a stud earring is the jewelry equivalent of an LBD? What about her blow-drying trick? Would you ever do that? Discuss!
